Before you begin using Batch Services, you should use Intergraph Batch Manager to ensure that users on your system (and users on other systems, if appropriate) are granted the proper privileges for access to Batch Services.

A user with manager privileges can use all the commands that affect batch server configuration and operation, including granting and removing privileges, and creating and deleting queues. A user with operator privileges can manage jobs, including those belonging to other users, and can start and stop batch server queues. Users or groups without privileges can only submit requests to queues to which they have been granted access. Most users or user groups are non-privileged users.

Using User Account Control turned on to level 3, the Administrators group on your system has manager privileges. From an account belonging to the Administrators group, you can add users and groups of users, on your system or other systems, to the manager and operator privilege lists.

  1. Open Start > Intergraph Smart Batch Services > Intergraph Batch Manager.

  2. Select your computer name in the tree view on the left.

  3. Click Server > Properties.

  4. Select the Security tab.

    Users and groups, and their Batch Service privileges, display in the Managers and Operators list.

  5. Click Add, and then type the username of a user into the Add Names box, or the group name of a group, to which you want to grant privileges.

  6. Specify local users and groups (on your computer) by username or group name only. Use one of the following formats when keying in a username or group name:

    domain_name\username or system_name\username

    domain_name\group_name or system_name\group_name

    Separate multiple users or groups with a semicolon (;).

  7. Select the type of privilege you want to grant the user or group (Manager or Operator).

  8. Click OK.

  9. Repeat steps 5 through 8 for each user or group to which you want to grant privileges.

  10. When you have finished assigning privileges to users or groups, click OK on the Server Properties dialog box.

To remove privileges from a user or group:

  1. Open Start > Intergraph Smart Batch Services > Intergraph Batch Manager.

  2. Select your computer name in the tree view on the left.

  3. Click Server > Properties.

  4. Select the Security tab.

    The current users and groups with Batch Service privileges are displayed in the Managers and Operators list.

  5. In the Managers and Operators list, select the user or group for which you want to remove privileges.

  6. Click Remove.

  7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for each user or group from which you want to remove privileges.

  8. When you have finished removing privileges from users and groups, click OK.

SHARED Tip To change a user’s or group’s privileges, first remove the current privileges from the user or group; then re-add the user or group to the privilege list with the new privilege.
